Abstract
GUTIERREZ VILLALPANDO BIOVEROS@HOTMAIL.COM, Verónica; SALVATIERRA IZABA, Benito and MARTINEZ CORONA, Beatriz. Cambio climático desde el enfoque de las mujeres rurales en México. Siembra [online]. 2021, vol.8, n.1, e2409. Epub Apr 01, 2021. ISSN 2477-8850. https://doi.org/10.29166/siembra.v8i1.2409.
An index of sensation-observation-perception of climate change (ISOP-CC) is proposed as a response variable based on five indicators (rainfall, temperatures, plagues, winds and frosts), with the aim of measuring female cultural reactions to these atmospheric events. Responses were valued from zero to one hundred percent. The study was carried out in three localities of the Municipality of San Salvador el Verde, located in the upper basin of the Atoyac River, in the region known as Sierra Nevada de Puebla, Mexico. Among the independent variables with impacts on the ISOP-CC are the altitudinal gradient related to the type of ecosystem and forest cover, damages due to climate change, land tenure, economic activities of the domestic group, forest cover, social and agricultural productive variables. It is concluded that rural women have differential ISOP-CC according to the altitude of their settlement.
